Overview

This full-day bus tour follows the scenic Sea to Sky Highway from Vancouver to Whistler, a mountain resort town in British Columbia. The trip begins at Canada Place, where guests board a mini-coach and drive through Stanley Park, crossing the Lions Gate Bridge while enjoying coastal views. Along the route, the coach travels beside Howe Sound, a southernmost glacial fjord, with mountains on the opposite side. The first stop is Shannon Falls Provincial Park, where guests have about 20 minutes to see British Columbia’s third-highest waterfall and take photos. Next, guests ride the Sea to Sky Gondola, ascending 850 metres to the summit. At the top, they can spend up to two hours taking in views and, if they choose, crossing the Sky Pilot Suspension Bridge for a different perspective of the landscape. The tour then continues north to Whistler Village. Visitors may join an optional guided walking tour through the village, or use their two hours of free time to explore independently. Options include shopping, visiting an art gallery, or relaxing on a patio. Guests can also ask the guide about additional activities such as visiting the Squamish Lil'wat Cultural Centre or seeing the Peak 2 Peak Gondola and Blackcomb Mountain. After Whistler, the coach returns along the Sea to Sky Highway, passing the same scenic spots and ending back at Canada Place. The tour includes round-trip transportation from downtown Vancouver, admission to Shannon Falls Provincial Park and the Sea to Sky Gondola, a professional local guide, and taxes and fees. Food, beverages, hotel pickup, gratuities, and personal expenses are not included.
